The 4 Point check is:

  • Identification from the tenant, containing a clear photograph
  • Either a Utility Bill or a Bank Statement
  • Credit check, clear of CCJ’s, bankruptcies and indicating confirmation of residency.
  • Confirmation of employment – a written employers’ reference on company letter headed paper confirming the tenant’s permanent and current employment and that their salary is at least a multiple of 2.5 of the Tenant’s Rent (The documents should be no more than one month old from the start of the tenancy)

* Please note that if the 4 point check is applied and is in place, there will be no need to do a Full Profile – though in the event of a claim, the responsibility lies with the insured to produce the appropriate documents.
